There's no need for any of this. When you order your new phone from the Apple 
online store, you provide your phone number and your carrier and your phone 
arrives ready to activate. It will automatically activate when you turn it on 
for the first time. All you have to do is confirm some information and the 
phone automatically activates. I've done this many times. It works flawlessly.

Hello Phil,

When you receive your phone from the online Apple store, you can either take 
the new phone to your local Verizon Wireless store and they will activate it 
for you or if you prefer, you can call Verizon Wireless and they can activate 
your new phone, remotely, assuming you can provide the IMEI ID number of the 
new phone.  The ID number will be listed on the side of the actual iPhone box; 
not the shipping container but the Apple packaging, itself.

In either of these two scenarios, your current wireless phone number will be 
transferred to the new phone.

When updating from an older phone to a new one, I recommend activating a new 
SIM card rather than simply transferring your current SIM card to the new 
device.

Phil, try not to overthink this, okay?  Given that you want to stay with 
Verizon Wireless, do not be concerned with whether the new phone is locked or 
unlocked.

Just go ahead and buy your new phone, from the Apple Store, and all will be 
well.

If you can, after receiving your new phone, take it to your local Verizon 
Wireless store and they will get it up and running for you in a matter of

Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

An e-SIM may be an option in some cases, too. If you travel internationally, 
obtaining a SIM card from a local carrier for the duration of your stay is 
often better than paying what can in some circumstances be very heavy roaming 
charges from your existing carrier.

So Brad,
I’m assuming that when you make the purchase, you select to have them transfer 
your phone number (i.e. Sim card etc.) to the new phone and when you receive it 
you then have to activate it with the carrier?

Maybe I got some bad info about it being locked to the carrier that way. Even 
if it is I suppose it doesn’t matter if you’re happy with your current carrier. 
Still trying to figure out what the advantage of buying an unlocked phone is, 
Since if it isn’t locked then you could swap out Sim cards all day whether you 
bought a phone with your number transferred or the “unlocked“ version.… 
Probably going to buy a new phone well my money still has purchasing power. 
Going from a 10r to 13. And I’ll most likely have them set it up for me.

2022-03-10 Thread Brad Snyder
iPhones purchased directly from Apple via the website or the Apple store app, 
are always unlocked, and not tied to a certain carrier even though you may 
specify a carrier when ordering your new iPhone.
I have purchased my last several iPhones from Apple this way, and can confirm 
that the iPhone you receive is ready to go and not locked to my carrier.
As far as I'm concerned, this is the only way to purchase a new iPhone.

Re: new iPhone se

2022-01-25 Thread joseph hudson
Hi Lori, a hotspot, is your cell phone is acting as an Internet connection for 
a secondary device to connect it. So safe for instants, you took your Mac 
computer. And you connected to the net with it. Since your phone and your Mac 
are linked to the same Apple ID, your computer will automatically see your 
personal hotspot, and ask you if you wanna connect. You will simply tell it 
yes. By doing your quick navigation keys. Then whenever you want to open up 
Safari or your mail, you will be able to surf the web just like you normally 
would at home except your hotspot connection from your phone is being your 
data. I hope this makes sense. And probably since Illinois is not listed as 
being a covert spot, you may or may not have signal.

Cellular  carriers work the same way in the US as in the frozen tundra of 
Canada.
A cell phone using the spectrum network should work anywhere within the 50 
states.

Hi,

I’m not sure exactly how your carriers work in the States, but up here in the 
frozen north, sometimes our carriers have agreements with other carriers in 
order to get full coverage.  The list of cities there may simply be the ones 
that have cable TV, and wireless coverage is more robust.  Your best bet is to 
give Spectrum a quick call and let them know that you’re going to Illinois and 
confirming what kind of coverage there is for you.

Regarding HotSpots.  My understanding of HotSpots is not for cell phone calls, 
but more for using your cellular data connection as a WiFi HotSpot so that you 
can use the Internet etc.  I guess that you could do that sort of thing to make 
a FaceTime call as well.

Re: new iPhone se

2022-01-25 Thread joseph hudson
Lori, I just wanted to let you know, I have tested the hotspot with spectrum, 
and there is no issues with it lagging so you should be good winning if you go 
to see your mom. I don't know where in the state she lives. But everywhere I've 
been, I haven't lost any coverage. I've been up to Waco I've been over by 
brenham almost out of Houston and have had great coverage that wins. So I don't 
think you still have any issues.

RE: new iPhone se

2022-01-20 Thread Rebecca Skipper
It depends on where you are in Florida and who your carrier is.
However, it could be hit or miss, and I was more worried about conserving 
battery.
The only time I have switched to the more expensive plan was when my Internet 
went down, and I needed enough data to use my phone as a hotspot.

RE: new iPhone se

Yes exactly Lorie. Something else I was going to point out as well, you might 
benefit from the $45 a month plan, if in you experienced a lot of power outages 
due to the winter storms that we are going to be having here in Texas. But I'm 
hoping that we don't have that issue, this year. I saw Encore electric out 
working on some of the power poles just this afternoon.

Pretty well everything from settings is transferred over.  Even some of your

Re: new iPhone se

2022-01-20 Thread joseph hudson
Lori, since you're already a spectrum customer, it should be a simple as taking 
your Sim card out of your old phone and putting it in your new one. And by the 
way, for that person, that gave her the idea of not having to pay for two 
lines. That is actually cheaper than the one line plan. As the one line plan, 
is 45 bucks a month plus taxes and the please. Well you can get two lines for 
60 bucks.

Re: new iPhone

2021-11-14 Thread 'Tim Kilburn' via MacVisionaries
Hi,

When aligning anything to do with the camera from a blind prospective, do the 
following:

• Set the old iPhone, or Apple Watch on a flat surface like a table or counter.
• Bring the camera very close to the older iPhone, or Apple Watch etc.
• Make sure that the lens for this iPhone is somewhat centred over the old 
iPhone or Apple Watch.
• Slowly lift the camera iPhone straight up and away from the older iPhone or 
Apple Watch, usually only to about 50 cm or 18 inches at the most.
• Normally, you’ll feel a haptic vibration, and the iPhone will announce 
something, as it recognizes that you’ve accomplished the task.
• If you do not feel the vibration, or hear the prompt that it completed, then 
repeat the above steps starting where you bring the camera close to the device 
on the flat surface.

This has worked for me every time.  Usually on the first or second try when 
raising the iPhone.  In fact, I just did this with a new Apple Watch on 
Thursday.

HTH.

Later…

Yeah, for future reference, initiating pairing manually via the pass
code is much easier.

I must say it does seem more possible for sighted people to look down on us

I tried looking down on myself but couldn't see anything.

I have sighted work colleagues coming to me to ask how to do things on both 
phones tablets and computers and that includes our Mac support speciallists
But then I also have clients that question how I work if I can’t see a screen 
or a keyboard.
I’ve started telling people that I use osmosus

Simon is correct.  I too set up my iPhone X with no sighted assistance what so 
ever.  Could it be that some stupid individual or individuals out there are 
trying to make us blind people think that a blind person cannot set up an 
iPhone X?  Dare I speculate that some blind people are trying to make the rest

Hi All,

I got my IPhone X this past Thursday and decided to do the set up today since I 
had a block of time to work on it. I did call Apple Accessibility to ask for 
assistance since I wanted to be sure everything went smoothly. The tech person 
did a screen sharing session with me on my IPhone 6 since the new phone 
wasn’t set up screen sharing could not be done on the X directly. We did the 
screen sharing and he had me launch the camera so in turn I held the 6 above 
the 10 and he was able to view the screen on the new 10.

For the most part, it worked out very well. The thing I found most frustrating 
is that the X would lock in a very short time and it kept requiring reentry of 
my pass code numerous times. I found this added unnecessarily to the time it 
took to set up the phone. When the phone was finally up and running and I 
checked out settings, I found it was set to lock after only 30 seconds.

During setup I also skipped the facial recognition. I need to go to an Apple 
store later in the week since I’ll need a new outerbox and screen protector 
so I think I’ll ask for assistance then in setting up the facial recognition. 
So far the phone seems lovely and its a matter of getting use to new ways of 
unlocking, going to the home screen and the app switcher which don’t seem 
difficult at all. I am finding right now the phone is very fast and very 
responsive. I’m sure I’ll find other things where I’ll need to alter how 
I do things but as of now I am very happy with what I’m experiencing with 
this phone.

   Ray I do not disagree with you BUT. If its too hot in the kitchen 
for you, get out. We ARE here to assist one another, not to cut them 
down. We may all have things in common, bit we are all different. So 
when one of those whiny blind folk bother to ask for help, they came to 
the right place. So cut them some slack. You were not born all-knowing, 
just like the rest of the human race.

Mine was having issues, and hubby, sons etc were pulling it out of my hands to 
help. I finally said let me deal with this, googled it, and found my error was 
because the cable I was using wasn’t good enough, got the cable that shipped 
with the unit and all was well, totally blind from birth. My husband can’t set 
up or fix my mac. Is an IT for windows, knows nothing about macs!

Hi All,

I got my IPhone X this past Thursday and decided to do the set up today since I 
had a block of time to work on it. I did call Apple Accessibility to ask for 
assistance since I wanted to be sure everything went smoothly. The tech person 
did a screen sharing session with me on my IPhone 6 since the new phone 
wasn’t set up screen sharing could not be done on the X directly. We did the 
screen sharing and he had me launch the camera so in turn I held the 6 above 
the 10 and he was able to view the screen on the new 10.

For the most part, it worked out very well. The thing I found most frustrating 
is that the X would lock in a very short time and it kept requiring reentry of 
my pass code numerous times. I found this added unnecessarily to the time it 
took to set up the phone. When the phone was finally up and running and I 
checked out settings, I found it was set to lock after only 30 seconds.

During setup I also skipped the facial recognition. I need to go to an Apple 
store later in the week since I’ll need a new outerbox and screen protector 
so I think I’ll ask for assistance then in setting up the facial recognition. 
So far the phone seems lovely and its a matter of getting use to new ways of 
unlocking, going to the home screen and the app switcher which don’t seem 
difficult at all. I am finding right now the phone is very fast and very 
responsive. I’m sure I’ll find other things where I’ll need to alter how 
I do things but as of now I am very happy with what I’m experiencing with 
this phone.

Re: New IPhone X and Setup.

2017-12-04 Thread Eileen Scrivani
Yes, I’m totally blind. Voice Over turned on immediately as soon as I did the 
rapid triple press on the side button. And then the Apple technician’s 
assistance since I called their Accessibility line, was able to see the screen 
on the 10 because I did screen sharing on the IPhone 6.


technically, I should have been able to place the older 6 next to the new 10 to 
just transfer my information/settings, but when I got to that screen I was only 
able to tap the setup manually button. The button for automatic setup did not 
show. This might have made the process faster, but at least its done and it 
went through pretty smoothly.

Hi Donna,

Thanks for the pointers. I will give it a try later today after I get a few 
things taken care of around the house. When I did the set up yesterday, and the 
screen for face recognition came up I did try holding my arm out at around face 
level, but it didn’t seem to see my face. So for sanity’s sake I skipped over 
that part.

I remember one message from another person on this list, can’t remember who it 
was, but they did say they held the phone at some crazy angle. Hopefully I’ll 
get it working soon.

Hi Eileen, 

Glad your setup went well.

Setting up Face recognition isn't that hard.  The first time you do it, it may 
feel impossible, but if you pay close attention to what your phone is telling 
you, you can probably do it yourself with little trouble.  someone else posted 
on the list to remember to make small movements with your head.  That turned 
out to be very helpful.  I started with a small movement, and if that wasn't 
sufficient, the phone would say something like "Turn your head up."  I would 
then know that I needed to move it further in the direction the phone was 
indicating.

Just thought I'd mention this in case you want to give it a try.
Cheers,
Donna

Re: New Iphone 6s - volume

2017-07-07 Thread Andy
Hi Scott.
Sorry for taking this long in replying to your message.  I'm currently being 
trained with a lovely big Guide Dog and I'm absolutely shattered every evening, 
haha.

I'll save your message along with the nice one I also got from Chris and get 
assistance if necessary, over the weekend to set my phone up just right.

Incidently, As a Scot myself, who's country has been totally excluded from the 
Irish and British  Lions, I'm supporting New Z tomorrow morning.

I hope you hammer them for having the arogence and anty-scottish views they so 
obviously have.

Sorry about that.  I'm angry.  Particularly because we did very well, for a 
small country of 6 milion, during the 6 nations!  And If we are indeed part of 
Britain, we should have had at least 8 or 10 players on that flight!

Very best wishes.

Andy.

  Hi, the volume is actually two buttons on the left hand side assuming the 
face of the phone is towards you with the round home button towards the bottom. 
 On the upper right side will be a single button for locking the screen and 
opposite these will be 3 controls, up, down and mute which is a switch.  


  To set the volumes, while you hear audio like voice over press up to increase 
and down to decrease.  To turn up your call audio, while on the call press up 
volume which controls the phone audio separately.  Also, set the ringer volume 
the same way pressing up or down while the phone is ringing.


  Hope that helps.

Hi Gabe.
Unless I'm mistaken, you will not be able to use the 4s SIM card in
your 5S without manipulating it. This is because the card in the 4S is
a Micro SIM, and the one in the 5S is a nano-sim.

Re: new iPhone

2016-06-26 Thread Scott Granados
Absolutely agreed, unlocked should mean unlocked to the network.  It shouldn’t 
mean you’re sort of unlocked, you need to have a SIM but otherwise you can use 
the radio and phone as you want.  That’s again weak sauce ™.

If it’s just a connection issue as someone mentioned then why can’t a software 
or even physical bypass switch be included?  Besides it may cost a half penny 
to include?  I think I just answered my own question.

I think AppleSIM is presently a dual-use option on iPad only at the moment.  
It’s a nice idea and apparently does help in certain cases where the 
alternative is full-on international roaming charges (but still not quite as

But really, yeah, it’s just stupid.  The whole notion of “Activation” is

Re: new iPhone

Depends on the device but yes my experience is that Android does not need a SIM 
present for initial setup.  I can’t speak to all devices though there are so 
many.  I have see this on the Samsung S5 specifically.

Isn’t apple working on or recently just patented a software based SIM option 
that’s cardless?

2016-06-26 Thread Scott Granados
That is not a stupid question, the only stupid questions are the ones left 
unasked.  Especially on a list like this do not ever feel ashamed or uneasy 
about asking a related question, we’re here to help.  Anyone who picks on 
someone inexperienced asking well formed questions like this is a troll in my 
opinion.:)

To answer your question, attach your phone to the computer and you should see 
the phone show up in the devices list.  If you select the phone and then arrow 
to the right you’ll see a scroll area you interact with that contains specifics 
about the phone including it’s firmware version and capacity.  Arrowing over 
more you’ll see a button for accessibility, press it, enable voice over with in 
this menu and apply.  Vo should start talking right away.  Once enabled you 
then want to go to, on the phone itself, settings, general, accessibility, 
accessibility short cut and make sure that triple press home is set to voice 
over so you can activate and deactivate as needed.

How’s that?

Hi all,

Thank you for the answers. I have found my old 4S and am now in the process of 
trying to figure out how to open the stupid sim slot to transfer that sim from 
there to the new 5S. You wouldn't think that it would be that difficult to poke 
a paper clip or stylus in to the hole and open the slot.

Re: new iPhone

2016-06-25 Thread christopher hallsworth
Ditto. I think in the future iPhones should be able to be activated without a 
sim card, as after all other smartphones can. Hate to say this but Android 
smartphones can apparently be set up without a sim. I have no proof though.

Hi!
You first need a sim-card in the phone.
Then you could try to connect it to your computer and set it up via Itunes.

Re: new iPhone

Alas, no.  You need a SIM card, just to get it set up.  You can operate without 
afterwards, and any SIM card will do—even one without service—as long as it’s 
an iOS-recognised network.

No, I don’t know why this is either; activation demographics is my best guess.  
But seeing as how an iPod Touch can be set up without a SIM card, well, I don’t 
see why the phone shouldn’t, either.

When you connect your phone to iTunes, you will notice an area where it 
specifically says “iphone” or something like that.  You’ll just have to explore

Worse comes to worse, use iTunes to configure this.

You’ll want to connect your iPHone to your Mac and then go from there.

Re: new iPhone user

2015-04-19 Thread Shawn Krasniuk
Hi Max. Welcome to the fun world of iOS. For me I use the native Facebook app 
for Facebook. Can't tell you about Twitter because I save that for when I'm on 
my Mac. As for Sirius XM, I use Radium. People say that the native Sirius XM 
app has improved in terms of accessibility, but I like the simplicity of 
Radium. If you don't need all the stuff that the native app provides like My 
SXM and on demand programming, then Radium should be enough for you. Also for 
Trivia Crack, you can purchase an ad free app inside the app. I can't remember 
where it was since I bought it already, but it's there.

Re: new iPhone user

2015-04-18 Thread Alex Hall
Congratulations! I'm glad to hear you're already enjoying the iPhone; some 
people who get it with the expectation of loving it straight away end up 
struggling for a while before they get the hang of things.

For Facebook, your best bet is the official Facebook app. It's not perfect, but 
it works. Their other apps--Messenger, Rooms, and Stories--are also accessible.

Twitter has an accessible, official app too, but I prefer third-party ones. 
Twitterrific is really nice, and is currently my primary app. Tweetings has 
some cool features and is worth a look, and I've heard that TweetLogix 
(possibly not spelled correctly) is another good option.

As for other apps, that all depends on what you're looking for: games, word 
processors, book readers, social networking, navigation, money identifying, bar 
code readers, object identifiers, light detectors, and plenty more. As always, 
I highly recommend www.applevis.com http://www.applevis.com/, specifically 
the page for new iOS users, as a great place to start. Personally, the apps 
that pop into my head right off the bat are:

* Voice Dream Reader, for reading just about any text/audio book or file that 
isn't encrypted. This includes Bookshare, Instapaper, Dropbox, and plenty more, 
all built into the app, and you can use third-party voices from the likes of 
Ivona Neospeech, and others to read.
* Dice World is a collection of six dice games, and is beyond accessible.
* Lire is an RSS reader with tons of great features, and is so accessible the 
developer has a section in the app's settings for VO users to decide what 
information to hear when reviewing article lists.
* Red Laser is a free bar code reader that works really well, once you get the 
hang of it.
* Downcast or Overcast are two nice apps for handling podcasts. I use Downcast, 
but I've heard great things about Overcast as well.
* Carrit Fit, Carrot Hunger, and Carrot Weather are all fun apps. Fit and 
Hunger are for exercise and calorie tracking, respectively, and Weather is (not 
surprisingly) a weather app. All three are fully accessible.

Anyway, AppleVis has a lot more information, including an entire page of apps 
we recommend for new iOS users.

Re: new iPhone user question

Hi there 
When you set up your email, you should only have to put in password for A T  T 
email one time when you set it up. You should not be asked to put in your 
password while you are on a call. Have you tried to restart your phone and see 
if this stops? I have been asked for my password after I updated to 8.3 IOS. 
That happened to me when I was in Music but not on a call. Once I got it in 
there, it didn’t ask me again. I hope this helps.

Hm, my letters are reading ok, but I am noticing that some of the speech is 
cutting off slightly prematurely. Not enough to make it unusable, but enough

to be annoying. It's like on some things, the very last syllable gets cut in

half, is the best way I know to describe it. With letters, it's not always 
doing this, but sometimes it does, making telling the difference between say

an M and an N rather difficult.

Hi!

This has been the case for non-English languages for quite some time, ever 
since IOS 4 was released. It has unfortunately become a lot worse in IOS 4.1, 
apparently. I tried spelling out a full word of eight letters, and none of them 
were pronounced including phonetics. I'm quite angry about this, really. Only 
the US speech seems to be ok in this regard, I suppose.

Re: new iphone update first impression

2010-09-09 Thread Nicolai Svendsen
Hello again,

Whatever, then. They obviously fixed that, in that case. My point still stands, 
though, as it applies to either all other languages or most of them. Or course, 
I can't test all of them but by the sound of it, it's widely spread. And it's a 
pretty big concern. Perhaps not to people who use the English voices, perhaps, 
but for international users it's a pretty big issue unless you have a keyboard 
and don't think you need to delete, have a little sight to see what the heck 
you're writing or third...just take a chance when using the on-screen keyboard.

Regards,
Nic

 Hi!
 
 This has been the case for non-English languages for quite some time, ever 
 since IOS 4 was released. It has unfortunately become a lot worse in IOS 
 4.1, apparently. I tried spelling out a full word of eight letters, and none 
 of them were pronounced including phonetics. I'm quite angry about this, 
 really. Only the US speech seems to be ok in this regard, I suppose.

 Hi,
 
 I had started to experience this with 4.0.2 in the past couple of days, and
 hadn't changed any settings either. Using phonetics at least the phonetic
 always speaks.
 
 Cheers

 hi listers, after downloading the newest iphone update i discovered
 that when typing text, voice over does not announce some of the
 letters needed to type, so if you don't have a good memory of the
 letters layout on the keyboard, you are in trouble.  i would email
 accessibility with these findings.

Re: new iphone update first impression

2010-09-08 Thread Christy Schulte
Hm, my letters are reading ok, but I am noticing that some of the speech is 
cutting off slightly prematurely. Not enough to make it unusable, but enough 
to be annoying. It's like on some things, the very last syllable gets cut in 
half, is the best way I know to describe it. With letters, it's not always 
doing this, but sometimes it does, making telling the difference between say 
an M and an N rather difficult.

Hi,

Yes I'm having the same behavior.  I think the update increased the speech 
rate.  I noticed the speech was a bit faster.  I lowered the rate and that 
solved the problem.
